The programme at each event will feature comprehensive technical sessions on the new features of PartMaker 2014, with a special focus on Delcam’s latest high-speed machining technology, Vortex.

The events will also include a presentation on tactics for best utilizing Delcam’s new Vortex high-speed machining strategies with high-feed end mills. Additionally, delegates will be updated on Delcam’s acquisition by Autodesk.
